bit rich calling a 400cc 40 hp bike a "Speed" lol..

Obviously for the Indian/Asian markets where a 400 is a huge bike.

400cc is popular in India and the Far East and there's a massive market out there.

Plus a smaller bike like that is a good entry bike in Europe. It'll be cheap to insure.

The Scrambler version looks great.

You do see a few KTM 390s and the BMW GS310 about on the roads. This will be a thorn in their side.

I like the look of them.....their proportions are much more in line with a true vintage Triumph rather than the current range of retro namesakes.

Such a great looking bike.

Going to treat myself to a retro classic Triumph for my France garage.
